| B. Requirements |
USP scholars read 8 first-tier USP modules and 16 MCs of Advanced Modules (Course Based Modules [CBAMs] and Independent Study Modules [ISMs]). CBAMs are pegged at Level 2000 – Level 5000. A scholar must read at least one CBAM at Level 3000 or above. ISMs must be of Level 3000 or higher, and relevant to the student’s major.
Advanced Modules offered by SDE can either reside in Group A (Humanities) or Group B (Science/Engineering) depending on the nature of the modules. Scholars read CBAMs in their discipline-related basket. If a scholar wishes to read a CBAM outside his discipline-related basket and count it towards his curriculum requirements, he has to seek prior permission from his respective Department.
